Great, at least my question seems less ridiculous after all and it may even be useful to others! Indeed this problem occurs on Trustwallet and I had never seen this before.

I strongly recommend you to avoid using Trust wallet. If you'll search the forum for users complaining about Trust wallet you'll find many such posts.

This topic is and example and hosseinimr93 explains it very well:

The seed phrase (also called mnemonic) generated by trustwallet is BIP39 and can be imported into many other wallets as well. Of course, this doesn't mean trustwallet is secure. Trustwallet is close source and we don't know whether they have access to users keys or not. It's also possible that you can't recover some of your altcoins due to not knowing the derivation path used by trustwallet.

The best is to avoid any close source wallet like trustwallet.

Charles-Tim, another experienced bitcoiner, explains same thing here:

Know that Trustwallet is close source, this is the reason I can not recommend it, but can be good for altcoins in a way no option for open source wallets, but the wallet is not recommended for being close source.

If you want an easy to use mobile wallet, try Bitcoin Wallet for Android. This may be the easiest to use wallet. It is listed as recommended on bitcoin.org and it's pretty secured. You can also try other wallets recommended on bitcoin.org.

But under no circumstance use a closed source wallet!

I hope this helps

By any chance are you using Trust Wallet? I just noticed it happened the same to me: I received the payment, the sum is ok but it doesn't show up any incoming transfer, and actually I noticed that even last week's payment transaction now disappeared from the transactions history. Not sure if there is some bug in the app after the last update at this point... 

No, I'm a supporter of Electrum (to be honest, I had no idea that Trust Wallet has a desktop version of the wallet).

Still any slot for senior member sir?

I think you quoted wrong discussion in your post

Sorry if this is off-topic.

For Android seed phrase bitcoin wallet, I can recommend Bluewallet and Electrum. There are others too, but I have these two on my Android device and I have tested it continuously many times with little funds on it. Electrum has released version with better user interface, although can not be compared with the desktop version which is better and have more features.

Bitcoin wallet for Android should be recommendable, provided if the user can backup his wallet file properly and externally. The wallet does not support seed phrase, it support only file backup which is also have to be encrypted. As the file backup is encrypted, I have not gotten a way to decrypt it in a way I can see the seed phrase unless you use the wallet for recovery, but encrypting the seed phrase is recommended.

About the bug on Trustwallet, someone complained it to me, but the person was able to send all his coins out of the wallet into another wallet. It is a bug. Still also good to know that a close source wallet should not be used, not because of this particular bug because an open source wallet can have such bug and be fixed, but because you do not know the kind of vulnerabilities that the developers may intentionally included into the wallet code, like spyware etc.

The problem with Blue Wallet is that it does not work with hardware wallets and for Lightning Network it only ofers a custodial wallet. Probably this is also why it is not listed as recommended on bitcoin.org. Electrum, on the other side, is recommended on bitcoin.org.

Indeed, this wallet does not have a seed phrase and, if you want to restore it after using it for a long time (e.g.: use it 3 years, export the wallet because you bought a new phone and restore the wallet on the new phone) it will take many hours to sync with blockchain, as it parses each block of the chain since the wallet was initially installed. Other than that, I had no problem with it.

This is true. And, who know?, maybe another bug led to this awkward situation encountered by Becassine...

In order to post reviews of the service, should we post them in the ANN thread[1] or will [banned mixer] create a dedicated thread review for this purpose?

I see no problem if you join the discussion in the main thread.

Just a small heads up: BlueWallet was/is closing the LN feature. The news about closing came in... February I think, I don't know when will they close the feature, but imho it's no longer a good idea to keep money in their (custodial) LN service.

I just want to remind that anyway Trust Wallet is owned by Binance, the biggest exchange in the world, which makes a ton of money every single day so I'm not saying that we should 100% trust them but I find very hard to believe that they would jeopardize everything they've built over a wallet spyware, it makes little sense to me, if someone would discover a spyware in their wallet it could mean the end for them and for the whole BNB/BSC ecosystem.

And just to be clear, as I said before I use Trust Wallet just to receive the bounty rewards, it's not my main storage wallet, I just prefer it for small transactions using the smartphone.

Only the fact that the wallet is owned by a centralized exchange should be a monster flag for anybody to not use it ever.

Binance, the biggest exchange in the world

Should I remind that in 2014 Mt. Gox was also the biggest exchange in the world? Needless to remind what happened to it and to its clients, right?

Or should I remind that Coinbase, one of biggest exchanges in the world, was caught selling clients' personal data?

Any association with a centralized exchange is like a plague, spreading more and more. Stay away from CEXs and stay away from closed source wallets held by CEXs!

Are we still talking about safety or is now a privacy problem? Because they're two different things.

2014 for bitcoin is like a geological era for bitcoin, everyone has his thoughts but placing on the same level an exchange from 2014 with another one 9 years later really makes no sense for me. Anyway I think we've highjacked the thread long enough

....and Google's motto used to be "Don't be evil".  Take that to mean companies have been known to do things that turn out to be very much against their interest--kind of like BTX, you know?  I wouldn't make any assumptions about what Binance would or wouldn't do based on the consequences they'd face if they got caught doing it, and that's true for any other business. 

Enron, anyone?

Friends, thank you all for a great week / Your 3nd week payment is on the way.

It's likely that a few users will leave us next week as I don't like the trend of user posting 30 posts a week and not getting any meritю.

I think that's saying a lot.

I hope that's because it's been during more than just one week. I did get a few merits lately but I've had weeks earning like 50 merits in one week and not a single one in the next.

I don’t think that those who publish posts for their own pleasure should be worried about this.

The merits in the French section should count triple because it is so difficult to get them 

But it is important to post in the locals, otherwise they will die ...
